Comment I like Obama, but jeans in the Oval Office? Saffron Blaze (talk) 23:11, 21 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

People dress nice to go to church on Sunday. Some places just deserve the respect. That or I am becoming a curmudgeon. Saffron Blaze (talk) 00:17, 22 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Well, this is Obama, who has been on internet comedy shows and obviously cultivates a young "with it" image. Not to mention it is fairly common for government leaders to wear casual clothing... Abdurrahman Wahid of Indonesia was known to wear flip-flops in office. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 00:56, 22 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The photographer Pete Souza responded to criticisms of Obama's informal clothes on Twitter by posting photos of Ronald Reagan also dressed casually in the Oval Office on the weekend (see 3 March at https://twitter.com/petesouza). I agree that this isn't a FP-standard image though. Nick-D (talk) 01:11, 22 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
